Newly released footage shows a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee stabbed to death last month on a Charlotte light rail train in North Carolina.

The surveillance footage of the gruesome attack that occurred on Aug. 22 shortly before 10 p.m. local time on the Lynx Blue Line was released by the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) over the weekend.

According to an affidavit viewed by ABC News , Iryna Zarutska boarded the train and sat in an aisle seat directly in front of the suspect, Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, who can be seen in a window seat wearing an orange sweatshirt.

The train travels for “approximately four and a half minutes before the suspect pulls a knife out of his pocket, unfolds the knife, pauses, then stands up, and strikes at the victim three times,” according to the outlet.
